La Fortuna

This city is close to many tourist attractions, including the Venado Caverns, Arenal Volcano, Caño Negro Wildlife Reserve and the La Fortuna Waterfalls. In La Fortuna, you can plan your trip, relax in the thermal water baths (the famous hot springs), or stay in your hotel and enjoy the landscape.

Arenal Volcano

This volcano is still active and towers 1,633 meters above sea level. It is especially beautiful to watch at night; the red hot lava and fire that spews from the volcano is an image you will never forget.

Prices

Traveling to Fortuna by public bus (this is the same bus to Arenal), will cost about US $2.50 (4 ½ hours). When visiting the hot springs, you can choose between the Tabacón Resort, which costs US $19 and Baldi, which will cost US $10.

The entrance fee to the Arenal Volcano National Park is US $6.
